Ti Pierre Dies

Haitian Hearts could not find a medical center for Ti Pierre and he died.

The principal of his school in Port-au-Prince called me yesterday to tell me this terrible news. She was very frustrated with his death.

Ti Pierre needed a new mitral valve. That is all he needed.

She said he is in a better place now. I am sure he is.

The decisions we make in air-conditioned board rooms influence the lives of people we may never see.  

Ti Pierre would be 28 years old today and in the prime of his life. Maybe even a father. 

We will never know.
